Using a 2.6 kernel on recent debian, use the /dev device, i.e.:

   $ cdrecord dev=/dev/hde foo.iso

or whatever device your cdrom is at.

I can hugely recommend k3b, which figures all this crap out for you. 
Beware some relatively recent kernel version (2.6.10 I think, but my 
memory is lame) that had a bug in it, that locked the cdrom device for 
writing after one attempt.

In general, use k3b :)

cheers,

doug.
